all to stall john brennan from the cia. we were hoping he would have stopped by now because he was supposed to be our guest from capitol hill tonight. that's where he was supposed to be standing. see how lonely it is? senator paul, we hope you're going to wrap this up soon. at the least, i would like to know how you went all day without using the restroom. sounds like senator paul is also hoping to wrap it up and join our shot. >> i can be done anytime if i could just get a response from the administration or from the attorney general saying that they do not believe they have the authority to kill noncombatants in america. the reason it has to be answered is because our foreign drone strike program does kill noncombatants. they may argue they're conspireing or may some day be combatants, but if that's the same standard you're going to use in the united states, it's a far different country than i know about. >> "outfront" tonight, tommy vitter and mike riggs. great to have both of you with us. tommy, let me start with you. w

let me bring in john. square the circle between what you described, what you've written about his wing nuts and violence. >> well, ali, look, i think what's important to realize is that this is not debating classifications. this is not about criminalizing descent. what's important is tracking a trend which is unmistakable. you're talking about 800% growth in the number of self-described patriot groups over the presidency for barack obama, something is going on. and to deny it has been a willful blindness, in my opinion. we've seen the steady rhetoric to undo the constitution, martial law. >> rhetoric is retreated, john. >> no. >> hold on. hold on. listen, please, let me finish. because this is important. actually, they said with the rise of anti-native groups has declined. what you concern us all is the ratcheting up of rhetoric and some of these groups give folks and it's become a racket that proliferates in the media. to deny that hate in our civic discourse, that is willful denial. >> let me ask you to

i understand john's point that maybe they didn't have a choice. if they did have a choice, maybe this helps the president make the point that thesis cue cuts dumb and we need to do something about it. >> there was a larger blunder in my view in that you had two republican senators who offered a compromise proposal which basically said, look, we know this is a meat ax and sequestration is going to cause a lot of stupid decisions to be made, so let's give the white house the discretion to make these cuts in a more coherent way. yet, the president diz not embrace the proposal, nor did the democrats. that's a big, big problem. the truth is had the white house had this discretion, they would have been able to make decisions to prioritize. that would have led to a better experience for everybody and it might have led the secret service to save this program that is very precious not only to the secret service, but to children and others that make the white house an inclusive place. that's only one part of what tumi-inhofe might have saved had the preside

i want to bring in john miller from cbs. john also worked for the los angeles police department and the fbi and intelligence. what do you make of that argument, the flight attendants say look, this is ridiculous. this makes so sense whatsoever? >> first of all, you have to sympathize with the flight attendant point of view here. the flight attendants were the first victims of 9/11. they were the ones killed with box cutters and knives that at that point were legal to bring on planes, but they weren't the 2 1/2 inch blades of the swiss army knife or the knives that people carry on their key chain. tsa is trying to do two things. they're trying to align themselves with the rest of the airline industry across the globe, which has the rule knives are okay, nothing longer than a 2 1/2 inch blade. again, the type of knife you might find on a key chain. that's not the kind of device that is going to bring down an aircraft. and we have learned when somebody gets disorderly on a plane, in the post-9/11 world, the crew and passengers
